Editress: Ginger Strivelli This month I thought we'd just cover some favorite quotes so... Quotes to Ponder By two of my favorite people to quote! ---------------------------------- Quotes by Elizabeth Cady Stanton: When we consider that women are treated as property, it is degrading to women that we should treat our children as property to be disposed of as we see fit." Elizabeth Cady Stanton Letter to Julia Ward Howe, October 16, 1873, recorded in Howe's diary at Harvard University Library “Love is the vital essence that pervades and permeates, from the center to the circumference, the graduating circles of all thought and action. Love is the talisman of human weal and woe--the open sesame to every soul.” “I am always busy which is perhaps the chief reason why I am always well. “ The moment we begin to fear the opinions of others and hesitate to tell the truth that is in us, and from motives of policy are silent when we should speak, the divine floods of light and life no longer flow into our souls. ---------------------------- Several Quotes by Henry Louis Mencken; Every normal man must be tempted at times to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats" But I had no idea who he was..just looked him up, he has some GREAT quotes!!! Beside the two I been quoting for years...the one above and the Americans detesting those who tell them the truth one I shared before... here are some more! Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want and deserve to get it good and hard. Giving every man a vote has no more made men wise and free than Christianity has made them good. The trouble with Communism is the Communists, just as the trouble with Christianity is the Christians” No matter how happily a woman may be married, it always pleases her to discover that there is a nice man who wishes she were not. Puritanism: The haunting fear that someone, somewhere, may be happy. Misogynist: A man who hates women as much as women hate one another. ------------------------------------
